Editorial summary

Paul strengthened the disciples of Galatia and Phrygia, then spent more than two years in Ephesus until a riot broke out. After visiting Macedonia and Greece he sailed down the coast of Asia, said farewell to the Ephesian elders at Miletus and pressed on to Jerusalem despite repeated warnings.

Acts gives no dates. Most chronologies place this journey in the mid-50s AD, ending around AD 57; some use AD 54–58.
